his private Office, which is about twenty feet
from the cage in which Linggs cell is. mo-
ment later there was explosion. To my mind
1t was such an explosion as would be occasloned
by the discharge of double barreled shotgun
heavily loaded with not only bird, but slug
shots Immediately myself, Enelehardt, with
deputies Egan and Hogan, the two latter being
near at hand. jumped to the door OF the cell.
At the moment of the explosion Jailer Folz
of his Office, and crossing the reception room
OF the jail, came to our assistance. AT this
minute few wreaths OF smoke coming
out OF the cell occupied by Lingg The prisoner
was on the floor. The lower part of his face
such a mass of blood that the features
unrecognzable Blood was scattered the
floor, on the cot, in places the wall, and the
body OF the suicide was covered with it. Deputy
Egan was Immediately dispatched to the insane
department of the jail This is reached by run
ming down the iron steps. crossing the stone
yard diving In the basement, again pair of
stairs, and finally into the doctors private apart
ments. When the doctor came to the Jail
proper he saw at once that the case was
which he could not safely handle alone. He
sent a messenger around to DIR. Fengers house,
which is on La Sale avenue. few blocks away.
DR.. Fenger is skilled surgeon. As soon as he
arrived he ordered Liugg taken to another room.
The one selected was the bathroom of the jail.
The dying man was carried to this apartment
by myself and the three deputies mentioned.
He was placed on hast'ly-improvised table
BY this time three other physicians had arrived
One dressed the torn flesh, and another gave at
tention to the tongue of the mortally wounded
man. portion of the tongue was left, and was
throat, stopping Lnge's breathing. The physi-
clan pulled this back, and string attached,
which was held by deputy, thus allowing res
piration. While this was going on. another
surgeon operated deodorizer; another had q
syringe in his hands. and frequently injected
portions of brandy. and again doses of sails
Morphine injections were also given"
Jaller Conrad FolZ thus explains the manner
in which Lingg took his life: ''Lingg in some
way became possessed of dynamite cap. This
cap is between one and one-half inch long. 1t
Is made of copper and the outer end ia plugged
up with piece of lead The copper for at least
half an inch is filed with dynamite. Then
small portion is flied with Illuminating powder.
Into this powder runs a fuse made of braided
cloth. In my opinion. Lingg, while lying in
bed, reached out his hand. took from his table
the lighted candle, and then placed the explosive
in bis mouth with the fuse outward. This he
placed to the candle, and his mortal wound fol-
lowed"

senting that they were musicians The room
was rented to them, and they said they would

whose name the police refuse to dvuiee, re-
ported to the police that he had seen the must
clans and that he knew one of them to be
Anarchist from the city, and he believed the
party were Anarchists who proposed to make the
room their headquarters while they perfected
their plans to blow up Mr. Brayton's residence.
The CAPTAIN of police promptly ordered a de-
tachment of his men to guard Mr.. Brayton's
house.
About o'clock tonight bomb was found by
Thomas Maloney in the rear of the residence of
James Brayton, on Yale, near Sixty third street,
IN Epglewood. The bomb consisted Of a piece
pipe, twelve inches long and about two
inches in diameter, filled with pieces of iron and
substance supposed to be dynamite Mr.
Brayton said to a reporter tonight that
he did not fear any organized attack, but be-

cranks. He has received several threatening
letters since sentence was pronounced the
Anarchists, and has consulted with reference to
them with Chief Ebersod. States attorney
Grinneil and Captain Setback Two officers
were detailed to guard his house.

Schwab became deeply depressed. He walked
up and down his cell, with his head on his
breast Engsl and Fischer refused to talk to
their keeper, but were evidently almost over
whelned by the tragedy. Jailer Folz and his
were very much depressed this evening over
the event of the day.
Mr.. Folz was asked to explain the way in
which Lingg had kept his dynamite cap from
the eyes of his keepers Said he: II have two
theories. You know that Lingg had very
bushy head of hair 1t is not without the bounds
of possibility that he placed the cap in his
locks and kept it there while searched him
last Sunday. At that time he stripped
completely. My deputies searched all his cloth
ing and could find nothing OF suspicious char
acte-. Then, again, l have theory which /
hardly like TO speak about l have known of
cases." he continued slowly, where women
thieves have concealed their stolen property in
parts of their persons which it would be indeI-
cate TO specify. Lineg may nave done the same
thing. OF course this is mere speculation. but
it came into my mind while studying up the
various features of the case"
Deputy Sheriff O'Nein told the following
story to Associated Press reporter. By way
of preface, IL may be said that this same deputy
has been stationed directly in front of Linggs
cell. and deputy Engelhardt his brother

Tho Caunl Cutter,s NIIstakc.

N. de Lesaeps may have cause 10 regret
that he went to Berlin and, being there,
said polite things to Bismarck. The French
suspect his loyalty and are denouncing
him with all the violence Of leading arti-
Giles and cartoons. II no can find it in his
heart to be on speaking terms with the
arch-enemy Of his country, then he isn't
the man to cut an American canal with
French money. The case seems to be no
leas serious than this.
d. de Lesseps ought to have sought a
public place where Bismarck would have
a chance to speak to him. Upon the az.
proach Of Bismarck he should have turned
his back, Kissed reranche! and at once tele-
graphed full reports to the Paris nevspa-
pers, telling how the Prince Chancellor
sickened and turned pale and had to be
carted of the field in an ambulance.
II NJ. de Lesssps had been Thoughtful
enough to do this he would have been de.
clared the avenger OF his country 8 wrongs,
his canal scheme would have been bro
nounced a certain SUCCESS, aud the lacking
millions would have rol!edin. The French
pocketbook is touched easily by senti.
ment, to open or to close.

Advertising Cl,enu and Good.


Tho way to make advertising pay Is to
study it carefully in all Its features, as q
scieutist does q fy's eye under the micro.
scope. Theatrical people ara quite as
searching in their methods. No point OF
vantage escapes them, high wall or curb
stone, a placard on the back Of 4 street
Arab or n word oil commenda!ion from a
great man.
There is that genius, Mr.. A. NJ. Palmer.
He has a play which he wants to boom.
He scratches his head and determines to
make tho President Of tho United States
and some other notables help him. And
30 he works up y ocheme to have these
gentlemen invits his company to Wash
ington on d flying trip. The newspapers
talk about i%t-just as we are doing now
and Mr.. Palmer gets great deal Of adver-
tising for nothing.
Other people Of lees genius do the same
sort Of thing on q smaller scale, and tho
newspapers can't well help falling into
the snare. Some Of tho most persistent
and withal judicious advertisera are thoae
who would scorn to pay a cent for what
they get, but they get 1t Just the came.
We imagine how they chuckle when they
accomplish it. Aud the newspaper may

A correspondent who saw some OF the

There was no time to gather up the

Now when the beauties discovered that
they were really alive and in no immo-
diato danger OF being killed, the ~resliza-
ton OF the situation must have been q
thousand miserable deaths rolled into one.
To the heartless men who looked on it
must have been like going behind the
scenes and seeing a beauty made Of the
raw material, built up piece by piece and

In this country, fortunately, the pro.
fe,sional beauty-business is not carried &c
